I describe contemporary practices related to the public tachilga offering intended for the guardians of the most important mountains with national status in Mongolia. I consider how the local ontology based on the relational interaction between human and non-human entities is reflected at the level of state activities. Discussing the issue, I refer to the category of landscape and show how it has become a major actor in contemporary national discourse in Mongolia}, type={Text}, title={Sacred Mountains in the Context of the Modern Nation: The Political Dimension of the Landscape in Mongolia}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/iae/Content/158868/PDF/WA308_189301_P325_Sacred-Mountains-in_I.pdf}, volume={64}, number={1-2}, journal={Etnografia Polska}, publisher={Instytut Archeologii i Etnologii Polskiej Akademii Nauk}, keywords={Mongolia, Altai, sacred mountains, tachilga, ceremonies, invented tradition, landscape}, }
